A disposable intake air cleaner for internal combustion engines, particularly relatively large truck engines and the like. The air cleaner accommodates engine intake air ducts of different sizes as well as installation of the cleaner on a motor vehicle without precise alignment of the air cleaner with the engine intake air duct and without the use of a hump hose or other flexible air conduit between the air cleaner and a fixed engine intake duct. The air cleaner has a flexible air duct coupling integrally formed, by a unique method, with a sealing bond between the air cleaner housing and air filter. A reusable flexible boot connects the air cleaner inlet to an engine air intake passage in the vehicle hood when the cleaner is mounted in the engine compartment and the hood is closed.
